Were in??? How close is this friend of yours and have you seen the pistons?

reason why I ask is that the CTR pistons have to be modified to fit a regular B16's rods.

or the reverse, modify the rods. shave 1mm from each side of the piston end of the rod. pct ctr pistons in a b16a yields about 11:1 compression. domed. very domed.
